Attended a trivia night. I don't know the official name for it but they are used as money makers for various organizations. The PCM school district is holding one later this month so I think a group of us went to one in Newton last night to get an idea of what was going on. WOOOOH! It was fun, but........... there were 21 tables of 8 people. There are set categories of questions with ten questions in each round and ten rounds. The categories last night were entertainment, politics, sports, potpouri, Seinfeld, popular movies, popular songs, Firsts, foods and another one I can't think of. It was hard and I think there was some serious cheating going on. You can't convince me that people knew that much and could guess the "in what year" exactly without being a year or two off. We came in last place, but we still had a good time. One person at our table did when a door prize to Old Chicago. Lucky them! If you have never done this and want to try it, join us on March 31st for another attempt. Don't know what the categories will be that night. Our group included Paul and Sue Ponder, Glady Burns, Elmer Blythe, Dan and Brenda Downey and Jim and myself, the picture taker.
